Beauty and the Beasts

An’an hit once and her palm instantly became sticky. She immediately wiped her hands on the grass, a hint of despising appearing on her tender small face.

Third, who was hit, froze up as if the pause button had been pressed. His beautiful almond-shaped eyes looked at An’an in astonishment, and he saw his ugly appearance clearly through her bright eyes.

He had a massive face (as the fur on his face hadn’t been shaved) while the other parts of his body were bare. He looked a lot like the meat pieces that the adults had taken care of and were about to cook.

No, even a piece of meat would look better than him. He had densely packed sores on his skin, the center of the pus looking red and damp. When he looked at them, he could even see disgusting yellow liquid on them (honey had been applied on them).

If he saw food like this, his stomach would be considered strong if he didn’t vomit, let alone considering eating it.

“Uh~” Third’s eyes opened increasingly wide, the astonishment in his gazes growing increasingly stronger. He finally couldn’t stand it any further and averted his gaze. His leopard face, which was like a plate, looked weather-worn and had an expression as if he was bearing great shame to keep his life.

Third wasn’t in the mood to remind his brothers and took a few steps back, burying himself into the grass pile, leaving only his black nose that was swollen up to the size of a table tennis ball outside to breathe.

Eldest and Second were only stunned for a moment. They then secretly mocked Third in their hearts before continuing to behave intimately with An’an.

Then, another two slaps rang out. After Third, they experienced the same mental phase and darted into the grass pile in succession.

The toads were finally gone. An’an seemed to heave a sigh of relief, turning her hand that was used to hit them toward her. Her palm was filled with sticky honey, and those who didn’t know might think that it was pus that had flowed out from the wounds. It looked very disgusting.

She didn’t know what to do and just opened her eyes wide to stare at her hand. It was as if her hands could become clean if she continued to stare at it like this.

The event between the children happened too quickly, and Bai Qingqing had just taken her eye off for a moment when An’an became the only child in the room.

Seeing the leopard cubs’ world-weary expressions, Bai Qingqing couldn’t help but laugh. She washed a piece of animal skin and then squatted next to An’an and cleaned her hand.

After An’an’s hand was cleaned, she let out an unnoticeable sigh but didn’t use her hand to touch her own body. When the leopard cubs saw her reaction, their heavily scarred hearts took another blow and they shrank even their faces into the grass.

Bai Qingqing smiled and said, “Alright, Mommy will go make something delicious for you guys now. Your fur will grow out very soon.”

The leopard cubs didn’t make a sound.

Sighing, Bai Qingqing carried An’an to the kitchen to prepare food.

With honey, she’d be able to make many new foods.

She first fried up some dough twists, mixing honey into it. However, it wasn’t sweet enough. If too much flour was added, it’d become bouncy like gummy. It’d be hard to roll them into long strips. Therefore, after she fried them, she put them through the honey one more time, enveloping it in a layer of golden color and looking exceptionally delicious.

Leopard beastmen were carnivorous. Even though they didn’t refuse food, they still liked meat the most. Therefore, Bai Qingqing had Muir help make honey roasted behemoth meat.

Even though behemoths had rough skin, the flesh under the coarse and rough skin was very delicious. It was chewy but not dry, and tasted quite delicious.

After the food was done, it was time for dinner.

“Children, come out to eat meat. It’s meat made with honey.” A tempting voice rang out into the bedroom, filled with gentleness and love. It was the unique voice of a mother.

However, the leopard cubs didn’t move at all. It was as if nothing could attract their attention anymore.

But that was just what it seemed like.

Bai Qingqing had no choice but to bring the food into the bedroom. What came along with her was the sweet charred scent of the meat.
